Day 9 – Total Thanks

My college education. College was so hard for me at times. But I am so thankful that I was able to go and that God provided a way for me to be able to attend the college  of my choice. I met so many amazing friends, found an amazing church and gained life experience. Sic’em Bears!

Day 3 -Total Thanks

8. My health and the ability to function mentally and physically. May i never take these for granted and may i use my body to fulfill God’s plan for me and treat it as His temple.

9. For my heritage. My parents and grandparents and in laws.  As I was growing up I did not realize how fortunate and blessed I was to have both sets of my grandparents, still living and still married to their original spouses. My parents and BJ’s parents are the same way. Now that I am married, I realize what a sacrifice and choice and commitment it is. I am so blessed to come from a family who has laid the foundation for successful marriage. I am also blessed to have married into the most amazing family. Who welcomed me in as a daughter. Who raised their son to be a Godly husband and father. I am so so grateful for this heritage.

10. My friends. I never had a sister. My brother was and is still an amazing sibling and I love him dearly, but God has allowed some amazing girls/women to come into my life and fill that “sister” slot for me. I am so thankful for them. They can see through my “fakeness” if I’m being fake, they can see when I’m hurting, even when I put on a good front, they love my children like they are their own and they keep me sane and grounded when things seem insane and disheveled. They give me encouragement when I am at a loss. They pray for me, when God directs. They are truly sent from God to be in my life and I am so thankful that our paths crossed when they did and have continued to intertwine through the years.

Day 2 – Total Thanks

4. My children
Hayden, Preslyn and Ella
You have shown me just a glimpse of how God loves me. I never knew I could love three little people so much

5. My business
Lindentree Boutique
The little business that could. This business showed me so many things about myself that I never knew. It gave me courage, inspiration, and drive.

6. My church
Family Faith Willis and the extending campuses Coldspring and Huntsville. The church body swept us in like a true family and we haven’t been the same since. It is amazing to see the things God has done in one year for our family and we love serving and living life with all of you FFC’ers!

7. Mexican food. Enough said. I LOVE IT!
